I have been on Zoloft for about 8 months. I began taking it for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and eating issues. Since I have been on it, my eating issues have gotten a lot worse. I began binging, something I've never done before. I have racing thoughts and feel like I am just floating through life. My weight has gone from about 120 to 155. I am not happy, and am considering coming off of the medication. Has anyone else noticed they have not been able to control their eating while on Zoloft? However, my anxiety did subside.

weight gain; tempomandibular tension; lethargy (but may just be my chronic fatigue??); my headache pattern has gone skyhigh!!! Help! My insurance won't pay for my Prozac; the generic makes me sick to my stomach, and so now my "relief" is Zoloft. I even went off birth control thinking that was making my headaches worse and causing the weight gain; and then I took a pregnancy test...none of the above...

HI i tried zoloft with a great amount of doubt, but it has actually been really good. For the first week or two, i had insomnia but that soon passed, and for a couple of days i felt mildly nauseous. My anxiety has definitely lifted, and my relationship has improved significantly , we are now getting married in 6 month!

Don't know if zoloft helped with that aspect, but now I've just been put on Yaz (birth control), and noticed a slight loss of appetite. It this continues, this could be the answer to all my problems. So fingers crossed. With Yaz, also, insomnia and mild nausea for a couple of days, but I figure that could be my body getting used to the drugs.
